  1. Basses, pedalboard and leads. I always have a spare jack lead and I've found that a 4way mains extension can be worth its weight in gold too. I've probably got some spare strings in one of my cases, but to be honest, it's far quicker to just change basses.

    Chord pedals

    I got mine from EES on Amazon, quite a few online shops stock them though.
  3. Wow, this takes me back. These things are bomb proof! They're a little bit 'middy' (unless you push the 'derek' button but they've got loads of volume on tap and are a great little combo. "fond memories of these amps" style bump.
  4. True dat.
  5. "Ed Friedland playing through this" style bump. [media]http://youtu.be/K0SNVkruU3U[/media] starts at 5'33"

    Chord pedals

    These are "cheap as chips" at the moment and, based on my impressions of their ODB3 clone I ordered an OC2 copy - the OC-50. I have to say that it sounds almost identical to the glorious OC-2. I'll post some clips sometime soon but I have to say that at the moment I'm loving their "made in the peoples' republic" sound. Great bass tones paid for by the sweat of oppressed masses? I'm such a capitalist stooge. Funny, I'm still a cultural Marxist - how did that happen?
  7. Cool, I played through a Hartke LH500 into an Ampeg 810 a few weeks ago (festival backline)and it sounded awesome. I'm starting to suspect that the 810 is the way forward, it's an investment though as I'd need a bigger car.
  8. Nah, just a 4x10. An 18" speaker is Dub territory fo'sho'.
  9. Further proof (if further proof were needed) that bass players are worth more than guitarists due to their comparative rarity. Go team bass!
  10. I gigged an identical rig for years and it never let me down - even after the guitarist bounced the head out of the back of the van. Friendly "this is a steal at £200" bump.
  11. Got a TU3 at the moment, does everything I need it to, and it also has a 9v outlet which I use to power my EHX freeze - it miraculously cures the whining noise that appears when I'm using a daisy-chain PSU. Win.
  12. I'd reckon that Fender only sells about 6 new instruments every year, the rest are circulated on here.

    COMPLETED!

    Collected, and as promised - Mancunia is indeed sunny today. Cheers MB1!
  14. "No pics" bump...
  15. I couldn't really hear the bass on my little telly-box, but her voice was incredible - the song was (compositionally speaking) brilliant too. One of those artists on my "must hear more of" list.
  16. What? Kennedy dead?
  17. [quote name='fumps' timestamp='1337847330' post='1666204'] Well i think intentions are good.....i tried to enter but the link is not working (On the Facebook Page) .....just my luck [/quote] Aah fumps, you could fall in a bucket of tits and come up sucking your thumb.

  19. I entered, there's nothing on my Facebook account that can't be got anywhere else on the net. Although, didn't Rob play a precision for most of the 'Big 4' set? Hmm....
  20. Oh my, soldering tonight... Thanks for the link Al.
  21. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1337786136' post='1665453'] If you want it to clash and to create dischord, it will sound great. [/quote] SOLD!
  22. repeat after me: "My name is (insert online pseudonym here" and I have a problem with GAS". My pedalboard has been in a state of flux ever since I joined BC. I've kept my main bass and my cabinet but have been through (if memory serves) 4 different heads and probably somewhere in the region of 20 pedals in 18 months. Not. Good. fun though...
  23. The highest I could hear was 16kHz (Macbook Pro into Grado SR60 headphones). I'm only 37 . To be honest, the difference between 16kHz and 20kHz is probably only about 2 or 3 notes, and this sonic territory is the stomping ground of harmonics as opposed to fundamentals, so I'm not too worried. Also it's off the internet - everything on the internet is a lie anyway.
  24. Mine is a 'Bender VaJazzle Bass' [IMG]http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd471/paul_510/P5180597.jpg[/IMG]
